This quote by TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com is a good thing to keep in mind. I'm not going to lock it because it genuinely seems to be helping some people. I'm getting reports though, so remember to be excellent to each other please.

this comment section is a memorial of injured experiences.

tread carefully.

Edit: fixed author's username.

I think the username ends peb not pep

Also you might want to pin your comment to put it at the top

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It is at the top for my instance, it doesn't work on some clients though. Thanks, I'll fix his name.

[–] psud@aussie.zone 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Right :) top is variable by user settings, is it pinned and my client just doesn't respect pins?

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's what I've heard. It probably respects it if you were a sh.itjust.works instance member, but not if you're not? That's from people talking about it last time this came up.

Mine is set to sort oldest first and it comes up top for me, though I don't see any other indication that it's pinned... It being there is most important though...

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I don't know what to tell you, the mod tools for Lemmy are pretty minor. All I can do as speak as moderator and then it goes to the top for my instance and I think fellow instance members. All bets are off for other users. There's no way to actually sticky or pin anything to top that I'm aware of other than to speak as moderator as a top comment.

[–] Blaze@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

FYI, I see it pinned as a top comment even from my instance

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's good to know. I don't know why it does and doesn't work for outside instances.

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Works for me too! It's displayed very prominently on my client (Boost)

Honestly I think it's displayed a little too prominently. Might need to go through my user settings and see if I can make it tone down the highlight a bit

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

I'm glad it's working for boost, I think that's a popular client. It is a little strong, I think it's the green bar thing.

[–] hazeebabee@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 days ago

Also just an fyi that my instance and app display it as pinned (slrpnk and connect). Also my default is to sort by top.

Idk what it means, just figured I'd also chime in with some extra data lol

[–] Mellibird@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

I also see this pinned on my instance.
